30+ Years Family-Owned, Part of a National Network
Murray's CARSTAR Collision has been family-owned and operated for more than 30 years, serving Des Moines, WA and all of the Puget Sound region. We repair all makes and models, and we're also a Tesla Approved Collision Center. As part of the CARSTAR network, we operate as an independently owned facility while holding to standardized, professionally certified repair processes that are recognized across North America. That combination is intentional: local, family ownership means the people who greet you at the front counter are the same people accountable for the repair on your vehicle, while the CARSTAR affiliation means we're backed by consistent training standards, OEM procedure access, and a limited lifetime warranty honored at CARSTAR locations nationwide.
The family behind it is Murray's Collision Group. What began as a single shop is now six locations around the Puget Sound, four Fix Auto stores and two CARSTAR stores, and Murray's CARSTAR Collision is one of them. Our Burien production site, where every non-Tesla repair is carried out, belongs to this shop rather than counting as a seventh. Decisions about your repair are made here rather than at a distant regional office, and the same OEM-approved procedures and training requirements apply at every one of those locations.
Collision repair has changed considerably over three decades. Vehicles built today rely on high-strength steel, aluminum, and an increasing number of onboard sensors and cameras that have to be recalibrated correctly after a repair. Shops that treat repair as more than cosmetic work, and invest accordingly in equipment and ongoing training, are the ones best equipped to return a damaged vehicle to safe, pre-accident condition. That's the standard we hold ourselves to on every vehicle that comes through our doors.
Meet Kyle Murray
Owner, Murray's Collision Group
Kyle Murray owns the family business behind Murray's CARSTAR Collision. Local ownership is not a line in the marketing here: the decisions about your repair are made by people who live and work in the Puget Sound, not passed up to a corporate office somewhere else.
